Per Skylark, to use it, you have to drop a function call into arch/mips/kernel/setup.c and kernel/printk.c, so I don't think this is an easily-used feature. In my patchset for Gentoo's mips-sources, I actually broke both Impact and Odyssey's early console bits out as separate drivers applied as patches if one forces a debug mode on. Because they're not really even real consoles....just a way to get output out of offbeat systems like Octane, which hides all the good stuff behind the broken (horifically broken) IOC3 metadevice. Unless you've come up with a better way to do early printk that can work shortly after the CPUs are brought up? > +# elif defined(CONFIG_SGI_IP26) > +# define IPNR 26 I don't think IP26 will ever live. I think the old R8000 TLB code was removed a few years ago, too, so to get such systems to work, someone needs to actually have one (I do), resurrect the old code, add in the TLB pieces (the Manual is available, so this isn't beyond impossible now), and test it. But at 75MHz, these machines aren't exactly speed demons, compared even to an R10K I2. > + /* CFIFO parameters */ > + IMPACT_CFIFO_HW(mmio) = VAL_CFIFO_HW; > + IMPACT_CFIFO_LW(mmio) = VAL_CFIFO_LW; > + IMPACT_CFIFO_DELAY(mmio) = VAL_CFIFO_DELAY; If I recall correctly, doesn't IMPACT_CFIFO_* break down to a pointer dereference? I was thinking it might be more readable to finally create a static inline function called impact_write* and impact_read* to take care of register access than doing pointer dereferences. I got dinged on this when trying to submit a driver for the RTC 1687-5 in O2 and Octane a few months ago. > + *cfifo = IMPACT_CMD_COLORMASKLSBSA(0xffffff); > + *cfifo = IMPACT_CMD_COLORMASKLSBSB(0xffffff); > + *cfifo = IMPACT_CMD_COLORMASKMSBS(0); > + *cfifo = IMPACT_CMD_XFRMASKLO(0xffffff); > + *cfifo = IMPACT_CMD_XFRMASKHI(0xffffff); Ditto per the above. Don't have a working IP22 board anymore. Haven't setup my old IP28 in a while, but it is intact and does have a SolidImpact in it. I also have a working IP26 (as noted above), but I would be surprised if anyone ever tackled R8000 support, given the exotic nature of that CPU.
